Re: discussing lionfish

I was referring to the Fuzzy Dwarf Lionfish. I've got a 60 gallon tank, and I've got a variety of tank mates - 4 1/2" long tennent tang, which is quite large, and a real character, I might add. I also have a clownfish and a Pygmy Dwarf Angelfish, but I'm planning on rehousing them if necessary, to ...

I was referring to a Dwarf Lionfish - should've been more specific, sorry about the confusion.

discussing lionfish

I'm planning to get a Lionfish and I was wondering what other fish and creatures I can keep in the tank with it. I know I'll have to get rid of my small fish, that's a given. I've got boxing crabs, hermit crabs, a starfish, and a decorator crab in the tank right now. Honestly, I don't mind if the ...

Re: A better course of action

Yeah I think that's a good call Seffie, I'll probably go for a smaller one and try to introduce it later on after feeding. I'll give it a shot next week, hopefully my clown doesn't get too used to being the only one in charge. Also depends on my LFS, she's pretty strict about when you can take a ...

Re: A better course of action

Thanks, appreciate the feedback. Yeah, I've kept it simple on purpose, don't wanna risk messing up a pricey setup. Been running for 2 years now, just adding bits and bobs every couple months. Hoping to make the jump to a reef tank this fall, fingers crossed.

Re: A better course of action

My tank's not the most impressive, I'll be honest. It's a 29 gallon hex, pretty basic setup. I've got plans to upgrade to a biocube in October, fingers crossed. The pics aren't the best, sorry about that - old camera, don't judge.

Re: A better course of action

Thanks, can't wait to see it. I love marine tanks, one day I'll try setting one up. I got put off with the w/c, how you need water from a LFS, but then I saw how cheap it was. I was expecting £30 minimum for like a 50% w/c. But anyway, that's another story, can't wait to see the pic.

Re: A better course of action

No worries at all, I'm actually surprised no one's asked for a tank pic yet. I've never posted one here, been meaning to, just haven't gotten around to it. Rockwork's a bit all over the place atm, just living in a temp place and haven't had the chance to really organize it. I can try and get a pic ...

Re: A better course of action

I thought about that, Seffie, but I've had this one for nearly a year now, and I know she's really healthy, eats well, and has tons of personality. I mean, I know a lot of clowns are the same, but there's just something about this one. She's got "dog" like qualities, even if it's just in her ...

A better course of action

Hey guys, I'm revisiting a topic I posted about a few days ago - whether or not fish can choke on food. I'm pretty convinced my false perc clown did, and I'm looking for some advice. This was the second mate for my existing clown, and it didn't exactly work out. The first mate, she actually took a ...
